1022 Named After Heaven, I Don’t Need to Explain It To You (2)
In the end, Ling’er didn’t tell Zhou Shu how she would find those people.
It was a unique ability she had learned in the river of time. Even if it was Zhou Shu, she wouldn’t tell him.
But just because she didn’t tell him, it didn’t mean that he couldn’t learn it.
It was just looking for someone. Even without Ling’er, Zhou Shu had now grasped two mysterious syllables. Through the induction between them, he was confident that he could find the other seven people.
The reason he asked her to join him was because he was afraid that she would act rashly.
At the very least, Zhou Shu would know what she was going to do.
He was worried sick about his daughter.
…
With the metals of the five elements provided by Zhou Shu, Ling’er quickly tempered five more lights of different colors.
The five balls of light led the two of them to a dense forest.
Zhou Shu looked at the surrounding scenery and raised his guard. “Is this the place?”
“This should be the place.” Ling’er nodded. Her method was quite reliable. It was how she had found the other person before.
“Alright, now retreat a thousand kilometers away. Don’t come over unless I call you,” Zhou Shu said.
“Master!” Ling’er said anxiously.
Zhou Shu’s expression darkened. “We agreed that if you don’t listen, I’ll lock you up.”
“Alright, I’ll retreat!” Ling’er said indignantly.
Zhou Shu looked at Ling’er until she flew out of sight. Only then did he turn around and look at the place where the five balls of light were circling and dancing.
“Are you looking for me?” A voice suddenly sounded in Zhou Shu’s ears.
Zhou Shu’s expression changed. He instantly retreated hundreds of meters.
The Celestial Thearch Sword appeared in his hand, and sharp sword qi protected his body.
“There’s no need to be so nervous. I don’t want to fight.” The voice sounded in Zhou Shu’s ear again. “Let’s talk.”
The voice was like a gust of wind blowing across Zhou Shu’s heart, making him unable to think about resisting.
“Zhe!” Zhou Shu said the syllable in shock.
“Come out!” Zhou Shu shouted.
“You’ve indeed obtained the law of the ‘Zhe’ syllable.” The voice sounded in Zhou Shu’s heart.
Light and shadow swirled in front of him, and a figure appeared out of thin air.
It was another person who was no different from a human. His face was blurry, and his appearance couldn’t be seen clearly. He was tall and slender, resembling an immortal.
He stood there calmly. It was impossible to tell if he was hostile to Zhou Shu.
“Who are you?!” Zhou Shu asked again.
“You came to me. Don’t you know who I am?” the man said casually. “You and I are on the same side.”
“No, we’re not.” Zhou Shu shook his head. “You don’t need to play tricks. Since you know that I have obtained the law of the ‘Zhe’ syllable, you should know what happened.”
“I know.” The man nodded. “Otherwise, I wouldn’t have woken up early.
“Forcibly waking up will do us a lot of damage.
“But I’m still very happy to see you return.”
Zhou Shu frowned. He had imagined many scenes and had also thought of the possibility that the other party would attack as soon as he appeared.
But he didn’t expect this person to appear to be in a friendly discussion with him the moment they met.
Is he afraid that he’s not my match? Zhou Shu was puzzled. “What do you mean?”
He didn’t even notice that the fighting spirit in his heart was decreasing.
The person opposite him seemed to make it impossible for anyone to feel hostility.
“I’m welcoming you back.” The man smiled. “Jun Tian, long time no see.
“Although Yang Tian offended you, ignorance can be forgiven. Shouldn’t you return the law of the ‘Zhe’ syllable to him?”
Zhou Shu raised his eyebrows. He didn’t understand what this person was saying at all.
Apart from knowing that he wanted him to give up the law of the ‘Zhe’ syllable, Zhou Shu was lost.
Jun Tian? Is he referring to me?
Yang Tian is the unlucky fellow I killed?
Are these people named after Heaven[1]?
Zhou Shu’s expression didn’t change as he said coldly, “There’s no reason to give away what’s in my hands.”
“Do we really have to do this?” The man sighed. “Let’s forget about what happened back then. But I’m in a difficult position if you do this.”
The man continued, “Give me some face and return the law of the ‘Zhe’ syllable to Yang Tian. I’ll mediate the conflict between the two of you. How about that?
“I promise that no one will pursue what happened back then.”
What happened back then?
What is this person referring to?
Who does he think I am?
Zhou Shu was puzzled. He should be referring to the person who forged the Legendary Armament Canon.
Although Zhou Shu was the owner of the Legendary Armament Canon, he wasn’t the person this person was talking about.
He knew nothing about these things.
Although he didn’t know, he couldn’t lose his stand. He said expressionlessly, “So what if you pursue the matter? Do I need to explain myself to you?”
“You’re still the same as before.” The man shook his head. “You lost back then and escaped. You shouldn’t have come back.
“Since you’re back, you should keep a low profile. You’ll only walk into a dead end again.
“This time, we won’t give you a chance to make a comeback.”
The tone of the person’s voice changed from a spring breeze to as cold as ice.
The change in his tone gave Zhou Shu a personal feeling. It felt very strange.
To be able to make people feel this way with words, what is this person’s ability?
The power in Zhou Shu’s body surged. With the law of the ‘Zhe’ syllable, his body was completely under his control, so he wasn’t afraid of this person.
“You didn’t give me the chance. I took it myself,” Zhou Shu said coldly. “I’ll give you a chance. Leave the law of your syllable, and I’ll spare your life. Otherwise, Yang Tian’s outcome will be a lesson for you!”
“Haha, you’re still as arrogant as ever.” The man laughed loudly. “Do you think you can defeat me just because you defeated Yang Tian?
“Yang Tian’s strength was greatly reduced, which is why you managed to defeat him. I’m different.
“You should understand that you can’t kill me.
“Stop being stubborn. Jun Tian, I’ll ask you one last time. Are you coming back or not?”
This person’s voice became colder and colder. Zhou Shu felt as if his entire body was trapped in ice and snow. The cold feeling from the inside out made all the cells in his body tremble.
Suddenly, the man in front of him disappeared.
He disappeared so abruptly that even Zhou Shu couldn’t tell how he disappeared!
Zhou Shu was shocked. Without hesitation, he slashed out with the Celestial Thearch Sword and used the Seven Swords of Heaven Interception!
The sword qi passed through the air, emitting a sizzling sound. Zhou Shu used the law of the ‘Zhe’ syllable to protect himself and attacked with the Seven Swords of Heaven Interception.
Puu! Puu! Puu!
The sword qi cut down the surrounding trees. Everything within a hundred meters was enveloped by the sword qi, but the person seemed to have disappeared.
[1] Tian (天) means heaven.
